Parcham utha kar Ghazi ka apne
Pure karungi main tere waade

Paigham tera mith ne na dungi
Pyaasi rahoongi paidal chaloungi
Lardti rahungi tanha lardai

Bayton ka maatam us din karoongi
Chehloum tumhara jab kar chukungi
Maine yehi hai mannat uthayi
Dunya me tera maatam rahe ga
I will mourn my own sons only on that day
when I have observed your fortieth
this is the vow I have taken

Chadar ke badle sar lun gi uska
Majliss ki khatir ghar lungi uska
Nasle yazidi degi duhayi
Dunya me tera maatam rahega
For my stolen veil I will take his head in return
for the sake of the majlis, I will claim his very house
the line of Yazid will cry out in regret
your mourning will endure throughout the world
Zainab ka tujh se wada hai bhayi
Dunya me tera maatam rahe ga
This is Zainab's (sa) promise to you, O brother
your mourning will endure throughout the world
Har ghar me hoga ab tera maatam
Har roz hoga misle muharram
Dekhegi ab to sari khudayi
Dunya me tera maatam rahega
Now in every home your mourning will be held
every day will be like Muharram
now the whole of creation will witness it
your mourning will endure throughout the world
Zainab ka tujh se wada hai bhayi
Dunya me tera maatam rahe ga
This is Zainab's (sa) promise to you, O brother
your mourning will endure throughout the world
Taabout tera ghazi ka parcham
Uthte rahenge dunya me har dam
Maine qasam hai Zahra ki khayi
Dunya me tera maatam rahega
Your bier and the flag of the Ghazi (as)
will keep being raised throughout the world, always
I have sworn this oath upon Zahra (sa)
your mourning will endure throughout the world
Zainab ka tujh se wada hai bhayi
Dunya me tera maatam rahe ga
This is Zainab's (sa) promise to you, O brother
your mourning will endure throughout the world
